I will build my life
Upon your love
It is a form foundation
I will put my trust
In you alone
And I will not be shaken

Heard this beat in an old playlist and thought it can't be an accident the track sounds exactly like 'Build my Life' by Pat Barrett. A blessing to pen this one. Lord, may it reach someone who hasn't considered you, in Jesus name. 🙏

Credit @elevenempirebeats for the backing track.

Yesterday morning I saw a video on here that genuinely broke me. There’s a new Gen Z dance, where they do the actions of a kid that got fatally st-bbed, and mimic the actions of how it happened as part of the dance trend.

Shock. Anger. Pain. Fear. Many emotions.

The cry “how long Lord?” rose up in my heart. This world is increasingly dark. And it's so hard to witness.

This heart cry is also now a prayer, and this prayer is also now a bar. Not sure if or when I'll finish it, but for now, it's called SHOELACES.

I remembered I had this track in my ‘future beats’ list, but was waiting for something sincere and deep enough to use it for. I feel like this is the prayer for this song.

A prayer for this generation.

A prayer for God's mercy.

A prayer that he would push back the darkness.

And a prayer that says, How Long, Lord?

We're ready to go. 😭🙏✝️

In Jesus name. Amen. ❤️

LEAN ON YOU

Out on all platforms 15.07.2026

I watched him start to rewire up
all my inner thoughts
Won't lean on my own understanding
I'm leaning on his thoughts
Cos he's the one with the plan ✝️

Vocals now all complete for "Lean On You". Was fun to be back in the studio! Took a couple sessions to warm up and loosen up again but really felt the comfortability returning in the booth and was able to really enjoy the process and be playful with it! Excited to be back at it 🔥🙏

This one should drop beginning of July, God willing. by @bizraps

Back in March, I took 2 weeks of leave for some much needed rest and to organise my crazy life 😅 I initially hadn't planned on making any music, but the timing was great, and I was able to work on a few really cool projects!

I came out on the other side with new ideas, a list of tracks to write and a handful I'm currently recording. It's been over 15 years since I was in the studio and the last couple years it's definitely been itching under the surface, just not something I was ever sure I'd ever have time to do. I'd hear a hard beat, wanna jump back on, realise how much other stuff I had to do and half-joke, "It's ok, I'll make music on the new earth, you'll find me jamming with David, that's where my peeps will be."

Recently been thinking through whether music is a distraction from things I'm supposed to do or actually something I should be doing. "Redeeming the time" can mean many things, which I hadn't really thought through before.

It's been fun, challenging, a heart wrestle. Many conversations still being had with the Lord as I search out what it looks like to do this well and use my time wisely without neglecting responsibilities. Also, it put a mirror to my heart that I wasn't ready for. Easy to think you've matured till you open a door to a space in your heart you haven't entered in over a decade! So, very humbling. A little painful, a bit scary too. The temptation to avoid making music because of all the overthinking, fear, anxiety, perfectionism, comparison, pride and bravado is definitely not a door I want to walk through if the Lord isn't in it. Genuinely felt he took my pen 14 years ago, and thought I wouldn't get it back. It's weird to feel what felt like permission the last few months - but with a clause:

(What the conversation with God has felt like in my head that decade)

"Here, take my pen, now I can write for you!
Hey, can I have back my pen?
Dad, can I have my pen back?

Silence

How about now?
Now?
I'll never get it back.
Can I go and play?
Can I play?

Silence

I don't want to play anymore.
Can I have my pen?"

...

"Yes, but stay close.
We've got work to do"

Please pray for me, as I continue to discern what this looks like 🙏 by @bizraps
